Should I Start Geno Smith?

Saturday, November 14, 6:30 AM

New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith was sacked five times for a loss of 42 yards at Kansas City, where his longest completion went for 19 yards. New York has allowed 28 sacks in nine games. Buffalo held Minnesota without a third-down conversion on eight attempts last week, though the Bills have allowed 15 passing touchdowns in eight games. Smith has a better chance to test that secondary downfield if Garrett Wilson (concussion) plays. Wilson was limited Thursday, practiced fully Friday and is questionable. Smith has completed nine passes of at least 40 yards this season, but he threw for just 165 yards and no touchdowns without Wilson in Week 9. RotoBaller ranks Smith QB16 for Week 10. He fits as a Superflex starter, particularly if he gets his leading receiver back. Smith has rushed for 54 yards without a touchdown through nine games. Buffalo kept Minnesota out of the end zone last week and intercepted two passes. With little rushing production to offset a quiet passing day, Smith is a sit in typical one-quarterback leagues.
